"Tides" seashell art exhibition opens in Ferragudo - Sept 27th to Oct 12th 2025The exhibition “Tides” by seashell artist Dana Georgescu invites the public to experience the rhythm of the ocean, through contemporary shell art.

Inspired by the constant movement of the sea, “Tides” explores balance, transformation, and the beauty of imperfection using natural shells in organic, flowing forms.

Working with reclaimed and naturally sourced shells, Dana creates artworks that merge sustainability, storytelling, and design. Each piece reflects her lifelong connection to the ocean and her belief in art as a legacy of calm, resilience, and harmony.

Based in the Algarve, Portugal, Dana discovered her artistic path during the pandemic, in 2021. Since then, her large-scale shell artworks have been exhibited in national and international group shows, gaining recognition for their unique blend of contemporary aesthetics and natural materials.

Venue: Real Compromisso Marítimo, R. Primeiro de Maio 119, Ferragudo
On view: 27th of September – 12th of October 2025: 

Artist’s Statement

“The sea has always been my home and my teacher. With shells, I give form to its rhythm, capturing moments of stillness and flow. “Tides” is about embracing change and finding peace within movement.” — Dana
